How do I remove Google lens from my Iphone?

Answered by Stephen Mosley

To remove Google Lens from your iPhone, you will need to access the Settings app and make some changes to Google’s permissions. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Launch the Settings app: Locate the app icon on your iPhone’s home screen. It looks like a gear or cogwheel. Tap on it to open the Settings app.

2. Find the Google app: Scroll down the list of settings options until you see the Google app. It should be listed alphabetically. Tap on it to access the Google app settings.

3. Adjust app permissions: Within the Google app settings, you will find various options to customize the app’s permissions. Look for the option that says “Camera” or “Camera Access” and tap on it.

4. Turn off camera access: In the Camera settings, you will see a switch or toggle button. By default, it should be enabled or turned on. Tap on the switch to turn off Google’s access to your device’s camera. Once the switch is toggled off, Google Lens will no longer have permission to use your iPhone’s camera.

5. Confirm the changes: After turning off camera access for Google, you can exit the settings and return to your home screen. The changes will take effect immediately, and Google Lens will no longer be able to access your iPhone’s camera.

By following these steps, you can effectively remove Google Lens from your iPhone by disabling its camera access. This ensures that the Google app, including Google Lens features, cannot utilize your device’s camera without your permission.

Remember, these instructions are specific to the iPhone and may vary slightly depending on your device’s iOS version. However, the general steps should be similar across different iPhone models.
